Has a movie, book, game or song ever changed your life?

Lord of the Rings as a movie and a book had a pretty significant impact on my life..

All's Quiet on the Western Front is a great book, don't know if it had a great impact on me but at leat some, but most books, songs, movies do....

Hmm I'd say Asimovs Robot Stories and Novels
A lot of other Sci Fi books especially by Clarke and Asimov

Oh and of course The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy had a very, very big impact on my life.....i can't explain how but it did, so did "Dirk Gently's holisitc Detectives Agency"

I just watched the movie A Time To Kill yesterday and it had a pretty big impact on me and made me change my views on some things

one book had a huge impact on my perception of life ,Conversations with God : An Uncommon Dialogue (Book 1) by Neale Donald Walsch.

matter-fact, in-your-face wisdom on how to get by in life while remaining true to yourself and your spirituality.

good stuff

When i was 17 i watched disney's Dinosaur trippin on acid, and it did change my life.

Some movies or songs probably changed my life, but I'm just not sure what movie or song.

😂

I'd have to say a whole bunc of things mixed together have changed my own perception on the world, and society. For instance the metal gear video games, have altered some of my perceptions on life. House of Scorpion(think thats right) by Nancy farmer. An extremley good book, that altered the way I view things a bit.
Scarface changed my life. It gives me a truly ambitious vision. I wouldn't say this song altered my life but i really like. Eminem's "Loose it." Speaks of ambition, and not to miss your chance in life.

ooh
hard to pin Down..

Gurrillia Warfare-Che Guevera
Live from Death Row-Mumia Abu-Jamal

Rage Against the Machine, Dunno if it was just one song, but them in general.
Hmm...
Oh!
Civilization 2
Great game, very historical too.

😆 that can ruin you forever.

American Beauty (movie, 1999, by Alan Bell)

i have no idea who alan bell is...but it was alan ball who has the writing credits for american beauty...and it was directed by sam mendes

Ball then. So what. Writers are underrated anyway, they should get more credit than the directors.

Even In Death: a song by Evanescence

Umm ... The Tomorrow Series ... They moved me and gave me a differnet outlook on things! 😉

Listening to Ween's "Push the Little Daisies", or whatever it was called... taught me that some people just should not be allowed near drugs and then given license to create music. Ever.

There are a Ton of books that have influence me some way or another. The only one that really stands out for me is Hermann Hesse's Steppenwolf. Movies don't really do much. I just see them as entertainment. But when it comes to a certain book that change me it was defenetly Steppenwolf. I read as when I was 19 it really change me since then.
